Volume II of the book Oxidative Stress and Toxicity in Reproductive Biology and Medicine: A Comprehensive Update on Male Infertility edited by Dr. Shubhadeep Roychoudhury and Dr. Kavindra Kumar Kesari considers various influences leading to oxidative stress (OS) in gametes and gonads, including environmental and occupational stressors such as pesticides, heavy metals, plastics, nanoparticles, and radiation exposure. Importantly, remedies are discussed, such as pharmacological antioxidants and natural herbal remedies. In my opinion, phytomedicine in particular is an important yet underappreciated area of inquiry as it may provide low-cost natural remedies particularly important for developing nations where the high cost and limited access to pharmacological antioxidant supplements may be a barrier to widespread use. This will require meticulous isolation and validation of active compounds present in complex, highly heterogeneous medicinal plant extracts. While the present volume maintains focus on male reproductive function, impacts of OS are also considered in the mind frame of female reproductive system and embryo development. This worthwhile undertaking brings us a thought-provoking collection of in-depth reviews. Without a doubt, a diverse audience of clinicians, scholars, and graduate students will be the beneficiaries.
